I could say that in a 24 hour store that they may have waxed the floor and had not moved the merchandise back. However, I do not believe this is the case for several reasons; first, it is not a 24 hour store; second, they would just move the merchandise and squeeze it in elsewhere on the salesfloor, but there was nothing squished anywhere; and thirdly, there just isn't the amount nor the selection that is usually there. Almost all of the men's jeans were empty. That's unheard of. I think it's going to be an interesting end of the year for everything. Time will tell! I did enjoy my shopping trip with my best friend! 💕😘
